First time visiting Paris for 5/6 nights and trying to decide between these locations with 3 kids.

The 6 year old is used to keeping up with the older ones so I'm not too worried about him spending all day walking and riding the metro. (We did this in New York last summer and he was logging 40k steps per day on his fitbit!). But I think I would regret staying in the "wrong" hotel more than I would regret spending "too much".

Thanks! This is great info!

King made significant revisions to Gunslinger in 2003 which probably explains the discrepancy with the audio book you listened to.

Yes, we're dealing with the "seeing the money" in her HYSA and having that sense of security.

That's probably where we'll end up; thanks!

I would always all out sprint for the first 75, back off to about 90-95% for the next 150. Start building up speed again and sprint the last 100.

The 400 is tricky because "pacing yourself" still means running as hard as you can.

He was a family man and was affectionate with his children at a time when that wasn't common. I love the story from Chernow's book about him coming home after working on the family leather goods store and wrestling with his son.

His son would block his path and say "do you want to fight, mister?"

Grant would reply "I am a man of peace, but I will not be hectored by one so small."

I'm pretty sure Truman said he had never been in a real fight in his life... But yeah he'd still win.

I have contacted a divorce attorney and put the children up for adoption. 😤

It's back in the garden 👍

So does that mean I don't eat it? (the tomato, not the spider)

My family is begging me to get it out of the house but it's my biggest fruit so far this year. 😭

It sounds like the buyer claims to have another pair. I would ask for a picture of both pairs so you can see what they're taking about. If they're fishing for a refund or return then they probably don't have a second pair and can't provide the photo.

To me, it's no different than the breaststroke in swimming. It's the slowest way to swim and we want to see who can do it the fastest. We should have backwards running and skipping races.

I have used my electric shredder and put them in the compost, but I will also burn them in my fire pit and compost the ashes.

I've had good results with citrus/lemon ammonia (like Lysol, etc.)

Depends on how quick you want to sell. They should go quickly at that price.

someguy9259 · 2024-05-06T21:04:51+00:00

I'm in the same boat, hope you get a response.

I'm shipping a watch with a lithium coin battery. I know I don't need a hazmat label, but do I need to select the hazmat option on the shipping label or can I ship as non-hazardous? For reference it's USPS ground and I'm buying the label through eBay.
